Kudos to Sherry Tripodi, Kat Braz, Amanda Estes,
and our yoUUth for a successful weekend. We
kicked it off with the annual talent show and soup
cook off. Then the youth stayed overnight to prepare
for the next morning’s pancake breakfast fundraiser
to raise money for an upcoming youth trip to
Chicago.
See below for Maxwell’s original poem that was
shared at the talent show and some pictures from the
pancake breakfast.
Upon a Canary and an Ocean Weeping
An anchor tugs a boat along in a stormy sea
On its deck, a canary screams, for to be set free.
The sailor treads on eggshells to man the ship sans aid
And he cries out, alone, where dreams and reality fade.
But lo, tis not a normal bird, caged by human
greed:
It is a wearied phoenix, whose love has been
betrayed.
To last this squall, to remember when a wing might
forget to fly,
In all his shame, the sailor allows a sigh.
For as the storm comes to an end, the wind carries
no goodbye.
